[dccp] closing DCCP WG
Hello, as you may have noticed, the RFC on UDP encapsulation of DCCP is now published, and there is nothing left to be done on the DCCP WG milestones list. I am going to ask for the Working Group to be closed. The necessary specifications have all been completed and are stable, and not much other activity on extensions, new CCIDs, etc seems to be going on, which would justify keeping the group chartered. Thanks to everyone who participated over the years to reach this state! After discussion with Pasi, we think it may be a good idea to leave the mailing list open for a year or so, in case there are any questions from people implementing and using DCCP. After then, we'll reassess whether leaving the mailing list available is having any value. Any new proposals for DCCP maintenance or extension should go to TSVWG (ts...@ietf.org). -- Wes Eddy MTI Systems
[dccp] review solicitation for ICCRG congestion control survey
In the ICCRG's goal to foster a long-term congestion control architecture for the Internet, its initial step is to understand all of the current mechanisms in use. As an aid to this, the ICCRG is working on a document that summarizes all of the congestion control mechanisms and other guidance that the IETF has produced and published in the RFC series. The initial version of this document is online: http://tools.ietf.org/group/irtf/draft-irtf-iccrg-cc-rfcs-00.txt We think this is a fairly complete listing of the RFCs that relate to congestion control, but if you know of others that should be included, we would like to hear about it. Also, comments on what can be done to make this more useful or readable are welcome. Comments on and improvements to the text summarizing each RFC are also welcome. The goal is to gather these inputs before the ICCRG meeting in mid-February. After the ICCRG meeting, the document will be updated based on these comments and discussion from the meeting. Please send all comments to the ICCRG list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). Although this request is being sent to multiple lists, this is only to notify people not on the ICCRG list; we do not want to burden the other mailing lists with replies, so please trim the to and cc fields of replies. Thanks in advance. -- Wesley M. Eddy Verizon Federal Network Systems
